EASTER VIGIL.... Blessed ones...come...

Welcome to all new "baby Catholics" Tonight is the Easter Vigil and this is happening across the U.S. and all around the globe. Catholics returning Home and those entering Holy Mother Church for the first time as converts.

WECOME BACK! WELCOME HOME! WELCOME and please don't roam from Rome again, even if it's hard sometimes to 'find your place.' We love you and the Church needs you. We are grateful, delighted and profoundly happy that you're here with us, and all the Holy Saints in Heaven! They've all just thrown a big party with all the angels for your Homecoming! Please find help, encouragement, support for yourselves here, and on all the other wonderful, informative blogs out there. We're a BIG family, but we're all in the same boat, that's crossed the Tiber. We'll share our joys and struggles with you, as you share yours with us, and together, let us be the "cleansing tide" of Tradition and Orthodoxy, washing away the gobbledygook from the misinformed, the misled, by those who misinterpreted VAT. II Documents that so estranged such a large number of the flock. We were misled by thinking we could just "follow our conscience" and by doing that, in the 70's and 80's we probably lost a potential 3 or 4 children that could have been the sisters and or brothers of our two sons. For that, this mother grieves. But God be praised, the NEW JP II generation of Holy Priests is taking up the charge, and "cleaning house" with Papa Benedict XVI...our beloved "BIG BEN."

About Me

I returned to the "First Pre-denominational Church of Christ," (as my husband brilliantly 'dubbed' it) aka: the Catholic Church in Dec. 2004, after my husband told me he wanted to go back to the "faith of his youth." The decision to swim across the Tiber has cost dearly, but has been worth it all! AND we are new grandparents of twin boys this summer, 2010!
